StratforduponAvon Warwickshire, United Kingdom NFU Mutual Full time

We’re a leading UK general insurer and financial services organisation, focusing on those people who live and work in the countryside. Our success is down to our dedication to outstanding customer service, a commitment recognised by the many industry awards we have won. Our recently upgraded Stratford office is easily accessible by car and bus with café and sporting facilities on site. We’re committed to making sure NFU Mutual is a great place to work as reflected in NFU Mutual being awarded the Gallup Great Workplace Award.

About This Scheme

We are fully committed to the professional development of our people, and this is no different for apprentices. This role includes on and off the job training, leading to the achievement of a Business Analyst Level 4 Apprenticeship. Business Analysts are respected for their ability to analyse problems, develop solutions and bridge the gap between technical and non-technical staff. The Business Analyst helps to make sure that organisations don’t waste money and time on projects or investments that don’t meet organisation or customer needs. This role is a key part within projects and areas of change that improve business operations through the correct use of information systems. This is the highest level of apprenticeship on offer in this field of work and is equivalent to a Foundation Degree. The scheme is designed to fully support you professionally, giving you hands on work experience, supplemented with a professional study programme.

About The Role

Accountabilities
· Establish and maintain effective working relationships with Stakeholders at all levels across NFUM to enable the effective negotiation and delivery of Business Analysis services.

· With appropriate supervision from an experienced Business Analyst, engage with Stakeholders to understand the need for and delivery of business change in line with their requirements.

· Manage the Stakeholders’ expectations by producing the appropriate analysis deliverables for specific and defined pieces of change, ensuring project and business objectives are met and that defined and agreed scope is controlled.

· Produce work packages, estimates and analysis plans that reflect the scope of the analysis work required and identify key dependencies. Agree these with Stakeholders to ensure scope of activity is documented and work can commence.

· Monitor the delivery of work packages and communicate progress to the responsible Business Analyst or Business Analysis Manager to ensure project and business objectives are met and scope or timeline changes are identified.

· Work with experienced Business Analysts or Lead Business Analysts to model the As-Is and the To-Be business processes to aid the understanding of changes and their impact.

· Exercise and develop analytical skills in the elicitation, validation, prioritisation and documentation of accurate business and system requirements in a manner that is concise, trace-able and flexible to enable the correct solution to be identified/ developed.

· Review, evaluate and support solutions to ensure that they meet the requirements and specifications in line with IT Governance Standards. Escalate any areas of non-compliance with the Lead Business Analyst or Business Analysis Manager.

· Complete the actions, training and assessments within the Business Analyst Apprenticeship scheme in line with relevant timescale to continually develop to achieve professional and personal skills to the level and standards required to successfully progress from the apprenticeship scheme.

· Deliver short term/one off projects and activities as required by and to the standards and outcomes agreed with line manager. Person Specification

More than anything, it is attitude and approach that matter. You’ll have experience of gaining information from others to resolve problems and the ability to manage your own workload. Great written and verbal communication skills, and the ability to communicate at different levels will be important, along with evidence of proactively seeking new opportunities to learn and develop. An interest in financial services, in particular insurance is desirable.

Qualifications / Other

2 A-levels or an equivalent Level 3 qualification (we will also consider applications from those expecting results this Summer). 5 GCSEs grade C or above or grade 4-9, including Maths and English.
Applications are also welcome from career changers and graduates.

Please note this vacancy may close at any time once sufficient applications have been received. Early submission of your application is therefore encouraged.

Assessment Centres and Interviews for these positions are scheduled for July.
The anticipated start date for this position is 23 Sep 2024.

We are a leading provider of General Insurance and Financial Services. From our strong farming roots we’ve grown to become a UK-wide organisation, turning over £1billion annually. Yet success hasn’t gone to our heads. We’re proud to remain completely customer focused, down-to-earth and committed to the rural communities we’ve grown from.

Our ethos - of trust, respect and personal service - lies at the heart of all we do and has seen us build an enviable reputation for exceptional member loyalty. Though we’ve been in business for over 110 years, we have big ambitions for the future. And that’s why we’re looking for talented people to join our growing organisation. Talented people like you.
